Madoff’s Wares Go on the Block

Care to cook your breakfast in the Madoff family’s toaster oven? Limber up on their yoga mat? Safeguard your family with their carbon monoxide detector?
Now is your chance - for a price.
The United States Marshals Service on Wednesday unveiled hundreds of items that it will auction off this weekend to raise money to repay the victims of Bernard L. Madoff’s vast Ponzi scheme. As with the government’s first Madoff auction a year ago, plenty of watches and jewelry, including a 10.5-carat diamond engagement ring, are up for grabs. But so are many less-glamorous trinkets, collected from the drawers and closets of the Madoff penthouse apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan and their beach house in Montauk, N.Y.
